I usually drink tap water. I've live in different states and in some, before more reasonably priced faucet filters, I went the bottled water route. Water is good for you, just be mindful that you can drink too much water. As you continue on your healthy lifestyle journey, the store-bought lemonade and soda will begin to fall out of the equation.

You know whenever possible I bulk shop too. It certainly pays in the long run.mind you it's never water Our water here is drinkable For me it's my cranberry juices frozen fruits and Greek Yogurts for my morning smoothies girl! And all that lugging is sure to have given you a workout!

I know what you mean about things being hard to carry. I never think I get that much, but I am in an upstairs condo and my cat and dog insist on coming down the stairs and try to peek in the bags as I struggle to get them up the stairs. Once upstairs, that's where I'm lucky. My laundry room is good sized with lots of cupboards. My son-in-law made extra shelves in there. When I get deals on food, I jump on them and then keep the stuff in the laundry room. My family knows that if they are in a pinch, they can call me and I probably have it. I must lead a boring life - I love to look for bargains and get excited when I save a lot.
